Abstract

La présente invention concerne des dispositifs connectés à Internet avancés, tels que les téléviseurs intelligents, qui peuvent être utilisés pour effectuer des transactions en ligne. Les transactions en ligne souffrent souvent de l'absence d'un mécanisme efficace permettant d'empêcher la répudiation de la transaction. Les données de signature, représentatives du mouvement de signature d'un client, peuvent être saisies par un dispositif de capture de signature. Le dispositif de capture de signature peut être la télévision intelligente ou un dispositif associé à la télévision intelligente (par exemple, un dispositif de commande à distance). Le dispositif de signature peut aussi être un jeton de sécurité. Les données de signature peuvent être traitées, mémorisées et/ou transmises pour une utilisation ultérieure. La représentation de la signature du client fournit un mécanisme de non-répudiation similaire du point de vue fonctionnel à celui de la signature manuscrite réelle du client sur un reçu de carte de crédit ou de carte de débit.
